And that would cost ns a great deal more than a thousand dollars." "This policy of yours, you know . my father had it to a point and I'm not altogether sure that he made a success of it." "He hadn't the need to study it properly." Shirley pointed out. ' My father had to do it well. We had only the fifteen thousand I've got now and we ,tent everywhere everywhere.

'"('yanez appointed you to three companies." he went on. "If we hadn't spent that money on Long lland none ot that vould have happened. So what about leaving the domestic arrangements in my hands, Roger?" - He looked at her, doubt in? Us. eyes. She srw the doubt dissovle and give place to consciousness of her morning gown. Keeping his eyes upon her, he flung his ciga rette into the grate. "Have it your own way, sweet heart," be exclaimed. He strode towards her. His hand played over the laces at her throat.

"Ton look as if you had been expecting me," he said. "That's how I feel," she said spontaneously, and added: "I was not really expecting you, of course. But I've been thinking about you today. I want to have a. good look at you . . . You don't look ill." "I'm not. I'm simply undergo ing a rest-cure, which I've broken for no other reason than that I felt I must have a glimpse of you both. Ton, by the way, look tired." "I've been shopping and I want my tea. Good! Here it Is." "Go on being tired and let me pour out." he invited. She watched him pour out the tea and was surprised at his deft ness. She bad always thought of him as fumbling at small things. "How can you know I don't take sugar?" she asked as he handed her the cup. It was on the tip of his tongue to tell her that he remembered every incident of the tea they had had together over seven years ago. but he made no answer, "And now tell me all about ev erything." he said as she leaned back with a sigh of contentment. She read his thoughts and laughed. "You don't really want to hear about all the hotels, the scenery of Norway, the fun at Southamp ton, do you? Own up." "No." he laughed back. "Well. I think 1 11 tell you what you really want to know. On the whole I think I prefer being mar ried to being single." "Good!" he ejaculated. "I was really living In cotton wool with Aunt Marion. But now I have to buckle to and think things out. I've spent three hours this morning talking to. a stupid artist about the paneling for the dining-room. At Southampton I planned to get up to Plnecliff cer tain particular people I wanted." "Are you going to make a house party of It, then?" "Not until the fifteenth and we are going up on the first. Roger thinks I need a bit ot rest, so we are going to have a quiet fort night, Your chance to be sociable, brother Alan. I know there will be no dragging you there once the others turn up." "Because I didn't behave my self nicely at the Westburyi? "Because It isn't your game. "But It Is still yours, eh?" "Need you ask?" Look at this house and we have only a little over tour thousand a year between us! Of course it's still my game; if only because already It has paid." (To be continued tomorrow.)

He had left her in the utmost good hu mor, not knowing tbat she had not wanted to be kissed. Now she came to think of it he never no ticed whether she wanted to be kissed.

Perhaps husbands were like that unless one mar ried a man like Alan, who, of course would be quite impossible in fVprv war . . . rs! tne turned to a mirror ana looked t the morning gown that had diverted Roger from his doubt of her policy. It was ot soft, thick silk, the color of honey, opaque and sinuous. Lace was used lav ishly on it old lace, a genuine point the Flanders that was yel low with time. Shirley couldn't quite remember what the price ot the gown was going to be; the bill had not yet been presented. There were many other bills that had not yet been presented. In her mind Shirley wandered over her house, inspecting, approving. Color and- light had been added everywhere; luxury had been sug gested only elaslvely an elabor ately lighted, picture 'here, a bro cade arch hung there. Everywhere there was that perfection of choice that cries aloud of wealth. Shirley, shrugging a little, did not for a moment doubt her poli cy. For one thing.
